Formative Research Proposal on International Healthcare Management System in SLOVENIA

For this coursework, you need to produce report of a survey of the healthcare system in SLOVENIA: ‘A Survey of the Healthcare System in the Slovenia’.
Although the report should focus on one specific country, make comparisons with other countries (USA, UK, Switzerland, and Finland) so as to derive a critical analysis. Statistics or other forms of concrete evidence should be presented to support the statements made in your discussions and analysis.
The report will need to cover the following two subjects of healthcare, according to the principles covered within the units. There is a practical element within each task where you need to devise solutions for certain problems. The details are as follows.
MANDATORY SOURCE: Healey B.J, Evans T.M, Introduction to Health Care Services Foundation and Challenges, ISBN 978-1-118-40793-6

• Plus attached articles

 

1. Healthcare Service Management

• Describe various types of healthcare services that exist in Slovenia and explain how service providers work together and allocate resources in order to cater for the growing needs of health and social care services. Elaborate on the various key entities of the healthcare service infrastructure in the country, and discuss how any identified parts of management and leadership play an important role in the healthcare system within the country. As part of this you should make comparisons and critical judgments about the effectiveness (or otherwise) of how particular services or infrastructure are managed and organised.
• Practical Element: Identify and evaluate structural implications, if any, and explain with justification how certain challenges can be addressed. Proposed solutions must be evidence-based, such as based on relevant secondary data, research publications, and other relevant sources. As above, aim to produce comparisons or critical assessments in support of any suggestions or solutions that you propose, giving examples or references where appropriate.

Learning Outcome Assessed:

• Assess critically and understand the developing needs for health and social care services, and critically assess the issues, including that of an ageing population, under limited and defined resources.
• Assess and reflect critically on the evolving needs for healthcare resources, and derive appropriate and effective evidence-based solutions for the requirements and needs of the stakeholders.

2. Healthcare Innovation

• Critically review the main establishments of the healthcare industry in Slovenia. Explain how they contribute to the healthcare service provision and make their respective impact or contribution to the provision of care, and make comparisons of their relative benefits and limitations. Pay special attention to sectors that may promote healthcare innovation via new technologies – give examples to explain what they are used for, how they complement or expand the provision care, and make assessments of their relative contributions to general health provision.
• Practical Element: Provide a brief case study for the chosen country to evaluate how healthcare technology has advanced healthcare provision in certain ways, whether it be in the form of reducing costs, improving efficiency and effectiveness, or enhancing the general quality of life. If the country is currently limited in its use of healthcare technology, explain why this is the case and the opportunities that may exist as a result. Provide suitable evidence where possible to justify your analysis. For the case study, you may choose an organization in which you have direct experience or first-hand knowledge of.

Learning Outcome Assessed:

• Assess and reflect critically on the evolving needs for healthcare resources and derive appropriate and effective evidence-based solutions for the requirements and needs of the stakeholders.
• Assess and review critically the potential opportunities for improved efficiencies through technological solutions, and reflect on the relationship of technology to healthcare requirements, with particular reference to organisations with which one is concerned.

As part of the above present information or data in tables and use any supporting illustrations.

Formative Assessment

As the formative component of this assessment, you will need to submit an initial research
proposal which should cover the following:

• Specify the country of your choice.
• Outline the topics that you will investigate for each task (Healthcare Service management and Healthcare Innovation).
• Explain your research plan, including expected research methods, sources of information, potential approaches for analysis (such as how data will be compared and analysed), schedule, etc.

MODULE LEARNING OUTCOMES ASSESSED BY THIS ASSIGNMENT:

1. Assess critically and understand the developing needs for health and social care services, and critically assess the issues, including that of an ageing population, under limited and defined resources.
2. Assess and appraise critically alternative funding sources for healthcare management.
3. Assess and reflect critically on the evolving needs for healthcare resources, and derive appropriate and effective evidence-based solutions for the requirements and needs of the stakeholders.
4. Assess and review critically the potential opportunities for improved efficiencies through technological solutions, and reflect on the relationship of technology to healthcare requirements, with particular reference to organisations with which one is concerned.

ACCT 442 – Spring 2020 – Research Memo

Topic: Allocation of MACRS under Reg. 1.704 -1 and -2
Document Type: Research Paper
Subject: Accounting
Deadline:*: As Per Required
Number of Words: 500+
Citation/Referencing Style: APA
 
Your clients, Tidewell Investments, Inc. (Rosa Parkington, President), and Tory Chadwell, each contributed $200,000 of cash to form the Virtual Management Partnership, a limited partnership. Tidewell is the general partner, and Tory is the limited partner. The partnership used the $400,000 cash to make a down payment on a building. The rest of the building’s $4,000,000 purchase price was financed with an interest-only nonrecourse loan of $3,600,000, which was obtained from an independent third-party bank.
All partnership items are allocated equally between the partners except for the MACRS deductions and building maintenance, which are allocated 70% to Tory and 30% to Tidewell. The partnership wants to satisfy the “economic effect” requirements of Reg. §§ 1.704–1 and 1.704–2 and will reallocate MACRS, if necessary, to satisfy the requirements of the Regulations.
Under the partnership agreement, liquidation distributions will be paid in proportion to the partners’ positive capital account balances. Capital accounts are maintained as required in the Regulations.
Tidewell Investments has an unlimited obligation to restore its capital account, while Tory is subject to a qualified income offset provision.
Assume that all partnership items, except for MACRS, will net to zero throughout the first three years of the partnership operations. Also assume that each year’s MACRS deduction will be $200,000 (to simplify the calculations).
Research Memo Project:
Prepare a tax research memo, following the guidelines as found in the course syllabus, evaluating the allocation of MACRS in each of the three years under Reg. §§ 1.704–1 and –2.
Due Date:
Monday, April 20th
Additional Guidance:
Consultation with your peers is allowed. Indeed, I think it should be encouraged. This would normally be considered an advanced research project for undergraduate students, perhaps appropriate for graduate students. But, as I advised at the start of ACCT 441, by the time we finish the Tax Assistance Program, you will be doing graduate tax work.
We’re there
Feel free to consult with anyone (& everyone) in class. But, do not seek guidance outside of the classroom, with the sole exception being conduct your research in Checkpoint.
Also, remember to make your final project reflect your work. Write your memo without the assistance of anyone else. And, do not share your written memo (or any early draft of it) with anyone else. See the appropriate business department policies regarding cheating.
 
Good luck. And, enjoy the challenge!
